[previewyoutube=8ydp8S0fdHo;full][/previewyoutube] Hey Shapers! The Transcendence Update is here! Full runs are now in the game with the introduction of The Orbital Complex and our final boss, VerOS. Explore the last biome in the game, experience a new challenge and take on the final boss for the first time ever! [b]New Biome: The Orbital Complex[/b] The final biome is here, a dangerous and shadowy tower, the command center of VerOS, the mysterious Overlord responsible for the corruption and hijacking of New Elysium. Fight in the most challenging encounters yet, including fights that contain more enemy variants and a new type of trap. [b]Final Boss: VerOS[/b] Once you reach the final room of the Orbital Complex, take on VerOS, our latest and greatest boss fight. Defeat him and get one step closer to liberating your city from the spreading corruption! Unlock new narrative content as you progress through the last leg of your runs. [b]New Feature: Greater Hacks[/b] We've added another way to add power to your builds through the Greater Hacks system. Each time you liberate a tower, you'll now gain access to a Greater Hack selection. This will allow you to select one of three hacks that applies for the rest of your run. There are 19 new hacks available through this system for you to find new ways to supercharge your builds. [b]New Feature: Hideout Teleporter[/b] Once you unlock the starter weapon and starter ability ciphers, you'll now gain access to the Hideout teleporter. This teleporter will move you directly in front of the exit towards Stage Select from the Hideout.
